B240A-13-02-F

Overview

The B240A-13-02-F is a single Schottky rectifier manufactured by Diodes Incorporated, designed for surface-mount applications. It utilizes silicon technology and is housed in an SMA (DO-214AC) package. The device features a maximum repetitive peak reverse voltage of 40 V and supports a continuous forward current of 2 A. Key electrical characteristics include a low forward voltage of 500 mV at rated current and a maximum reverse leakage current of 500 uA. It withstands a forward surge current of 50 A and operates within a junction temperature range of -65 °C to +150 °C.

Feature Summary

• Low forward voltage drop for improved efficiency
• High surge current capability
• Guard ring structure for enhanced stability

Applications

• DC-DC converters
• Power supply circuits
• Reverse polarity protection

Procurement Notes

Verify the specific suffix '02' against the manufacturer's official datasheet to confirm packaging or tape-and-reel specifications. Ensure the SMA package type matches the target PCB footprint. Confirm RoHS compliance status through the latest product documentation before integration.

Selection Notes

Select this component for designs requiring a 40 V rating with 2 A continuous current handling in a compact SMA package. Consider the 500 mV forward voltage for thermal management. Compare with standard B240A variants if different packaging quantities are required.

Part Context

This part belongs to the B220/A-B260/A series of Schottky rectifiers from Diodes Incorporated. It shares core electrical parameters with other members of the family but differs in package style and potential ordering suffixes. The SMA package provides a balance between current capacity and board space efficiency.

Replacement Considerations

Direct substitutes include B240A-13-F and B240Q-13-F, provided the package and electrical ratings align with the design requirements.
